About this work

Five young men in uniform-style dress sit around a white-clothed table in a softly lit interior, several bent over papers while one leans back with a cigarette. A samovar and a window with bright daylight occupy the background. Leonid Pasternak painted this work, titled The Night before the Exam, in 1895, and it is held by the Musée d'Orsay.
